Introduction Market Data Compact

MKG, Mallinckrodt. OK, Lab rats, you know the name Mallinkrodt from all the reagents you use. But MKG is actually a fair size conglomerate which is re-shaping itself into a medical device/pharma company. They are divesting low(er) margin businesses and are well positioned in respiratory care (Nellcor, Puritan-Bennett) as well as generic and specialty pharma.

Earnings are good and growing at close to 10%. Current P/E is 9. Market cap 1.7 Billion, less than most fluffy dot-coms making losses each quarter. Worth a look.
